Quadratic Equations | Chapter 4 | Class 10th | Quick Revision (22-23) | NCERT | Maths
Dear students, In this chapter we will learn about Quadratic Equations. Below ⬇️ are the tutorial notes and videos. QUADRATIC EQUATIONS The polynomial of degree two is called quadratic polynomial and equation corresponding to a quadratic polynomial P(x) is called a quadratic equation in variable x. Thus, P(x) = ax^2+ bx + c =0, a ≠ 0, a, b, c ∈ R is known as the standard form of quadratic equation. There are two types of quadratic equation. (i) Complete quadratic equation : The equation ax^2 + bx + c =0 where a ≠ 0, b ≠ 0,c ≠ 0 (ii) Pure quadratic equation : An equation in the form of ax^2= 0, a ≠ 0, b = 0, c = 0 Question: Find the roots of the equation 2x^2 – 5x + 3 = 0, by factorisation. Solution : Let us first split the middle term – 5x as –2x –3x [because (–2x) × (–3x) = 6x^2= (2x^2) × 3]. So, 2x^2–5x+3=2x^2 –2x–3x+3=2x(x–1)–3(x–1)=(2x–3)(x–1) Now,2x^2 –5x+3=0 can we written as (2x–3)(x–1)=0. So, the values of x for which 2x^2 –5x+3=0 are the same for which (2x–3)(x–1)=0, i.e.,
